Abstract

A method for carrying out a comprehensive quality control of MOX fuel rods, including measurement of plutonium content of pellets contained in the rod, check of internal structure and constituents in the rod, including the detection of rogue pellets, and measurement of dimensional characteristics and radioactive contamination along the rod surface, by moving the fuel rod axially, performing concurrently the measurements and checks along the fuel rod moved axially, using radiometry and radiography. An apparatus for carrying out the method.
